SC9964 Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide Sagger

Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide Sagger Description

Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide Sagger utilises SiC (silicon carbide) through a reaction bonding method to form a sagger structure tailored for high-temperature industrial environments. The material’s ≥92% purity and ~2.8 g/cm³ density contribute to its ability to withstand thermal stresses and chemical exposures. Its customisable dimensions allow for specific integration in furnace liners and heat treatment processes, ensuring dimensional alignment with specialised processing equipment.

Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide Sagger Applications

Industrial Processing Equipment
- Used as a furnace sagger in heat treatment systems to achieve uniform heat distribution by leveraging its high thermal stability.
- Applied as an insulation component in high-temperature kilns to control thermal gradients through its reaction bonded structure.

Metallurgical Operations
- Serves as a refractory container in metal melting furnaces to maintain product purity by resisting slag contamination due to its controlled porosity and chemical inertness.

Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide Sagger Packing

The product is packed in anti-static, moisture-resistant containers with foam padding to absorb shock during transport. Each unit is sealed in a protective film to prevent contamination. The packaging method ensures that the ceramic properties are maintained during storage and transit. Customised packaging options and labelling are available to meet specific handling requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What are the advantages of using a reaction bonding process for this silicon carbide sagger?
A1: Reaction bonding produces a homogeneous microstructure that enhances dimensional stability and thermal resistance. This process minimises impurities and helps achieve consistent physical properties required in high-temperature applications.

Q2: How do customisable dimensions affect the integration of this sagger in industrial furnaces?
A2: Customisable dimensions allow the material to be precisely engineered to fit specific furnace designs, reducing thermal gradients and minimising thermal shock, which can extend the lifespan of high-temperature processing equipment.

Q3: What considerations should be made regarding the sagger's thermal performance at temperatures up to 1300 ℃?
A3: The specified operating temperature defines the safe use range and ensures that the sagger maintains structural integrity under prolonged thermal exposure. Engineers should account for temperature cycling and localised thermal stress when integrating the material into processing systems.
